nekom:Thai_Mai_Xhu: Mr_Fabulous: I am going to say the same thing today as I did months ago, when I first learned of this story.

If an adult black man carrying a pistol pursued some unarmed white (or other non-black) 17-year-old kid in a nice Florida neighborhood... and shot him dead... not one person here would be arguing his innocence. Not one.

ONE.

dude, an athletic young white man is perfectly capable of banging an older out of shape black neighborhood watchman's head on the sidewalk, and an older black neighborhood watchman would have every right to defend himself with deadly force.More white people would back the black guy in your hypothetical than blacks back Zimmy.Lots more.My white cousins are sometimes known to make a racial joke, and even when they manage to insult some distant piece of my genetic make-up I don't even feel bad about it.Take it from your friendly neighborhood Chinese Redneck Jew; racism against blacks only works anymore if the perps were wearing full Klan regalia.

Make it two. If a black man were attacked and defended himself against a white punk under similar circumstances, my tune would not change.

don't forget the big THREE

George Zimmerman.He went against the WHITE police in an incident in which a BLACK HOMELESS person was beaten.

Oh, and those same people testimony supported George ZImmerman's story.

stellarossa:Popcorn Johnny: The judge didn't grant the defense motion to throw out the case, so Zimmerman must be guilty. That's what Team Trayvon has been rolling with on Facebook and other sites. Never mind the fact that judges never grant a motion to dismiss after hearing half the case.

Plus judge wants the jury to take the heat from the AA community for acquittal. She doesn't want them turning up at her house demanding answers.

They would probably burn her house to ground since they are threatening to kill people if a not guilty verdict is delivered. I know I'm taking shelter for a few days after the trial in case some nut case racist black person decides I'm the white boy they want to murder.
